Sleep Songtext

von Nneka

I must sleep, bring me down to sleep
I must sleep (oh), bring me down to sleep
I must sleep, bring me down to sleep
I must sleep, bring me down to sleep
I must sleep, bring me down to sleep

When my strength is overcome, all my effor come undone, the light of the day, overshadowed, dawns turns dusk
When the chains that were once broken become an invisible burden for us to carry forever
If the wounds that turn to scars, grow bigger, go deeper, you still feel pain would not go away would not wither
When the mirror that was broken is put back together, and then begins to scream your name, your name
When you realize decisions you have made are made, you cannot turn back time, you cannot change your fate,
You have killed, you let her suffer, you make the world suffer, you let him down, you let God down.
Oh you carry your own cross, and I too, I carry my cross, oh. but yet.

I must sleep, bring me down to sleep
I must sleep (oh), bring me down to sleep
I must sleep, bring me down to sleep
I must sleep, bring me down to sleep
I must sleep, bring me down to sleep

I must sleep, lay me down to sleep
Free my soul when I lay me down, for I must sleep I am going crazy,
I know I hurt you but I must sleep

Them ball, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, ohh
But the sleep so deep, it feel better in the soul And the tears, the fears, the cries, the lies, we stay stuck / Sleep my life away but I don't wanna wake up!
Murderers!
Blood of our children, mothers they scream, this ain't right
Murderers!
Just have to know who's the real enemy in this fight!

Oh you carry your cross, And I too, I carry my cross, oh.
